Unidad de Reumatología Pediátrica, Hospital Infantil La Paz, Madrid.

The use of intraarticular steroids was evaluated in 15 children with chronic pauciarticular juvenile arthritis. Of the 25 joints injected, 23 responded favorably. At the 6-month check-up, 65% remained in remission. One year after injection, 42% maintained a good response. The beneficial effect of the injection was not associated with age, sex, erythrosedimentation or arthritis duration. A small atrophic lesion in the area of the injection in one patient was the only complication.

D001171	Arthritis, Juvenile	Arthritis in children, with onset before 16 years of age. The terms juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) refer to classification systems for chronic arthritis in children. Only one subtype of juvenile arthritis (polyarticular-onset, rheumatoid factor-positive) clinically resembles adult rheumatoid arthritis and is considered its childhood equivalent.

D013256	Steroids	A group of polycyclic compounds closely related biochemically to TERPENES. They include cholesterol, numerous hormones, precursors of certain vitamins, bile acids, alcohols (STEROLS), and certain natural drugs and poisons. Steroids have a common nucleus, a fused, reduced 17-carbon atom ring system, cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene. Most steroids also have two methyl groups and an aliphatic side-chain attached to the nucleus. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed)	Steroid,Catatoxic Steroids,Steroids, Catatoxic
